coil packs are near new splitfires.

i checked all piping and appeared A'okay

as i said, simon has it now, i cant check anything,

ill keep ya all posted as soon as i find out.

cheers for the help all :)

ill put my money on a combination of things rather than internals. With internals, they usually go when ur hammering through the rev range, i reckon u have a dud coilpack + cracked cooler pipe, like maybe on the inside of an elbow

fecked turbs will pour out white smoke.

hey Chad, didnt your piston jam in a perfect position so you could keep driving it?

yeah, as you can see in this pic a large piece of the piston broke away but was held in place buy the rings, so under boost the piece was pushed back in to fill the whole, only blew big clouds of white smoke every now and then when i took off from the lights.

check the deterioration of the top land Chad, looks like it had been running on bad mixtures or timing for awhile

Yeah, im pretty sure the cause was a bad puel pump, its was replaced, but obviously it was to late for it and it ended up dying on me, but it also could have been a bad injector as only one piston was like that, all the others were fine.

i had 6 f**ked ringlands in mine, and the funny thing was it idled nice and drove nicely too. it was just boosting it over 4.5k and out came the massive smoke clouds and a full catch can of oil :)

oh man, this sounds like what my cars doing but my car idles lumpy and abit all over the place but drives alright but massive clouds of black smoke between gears under boost

was it one of the back cylinders......#6 tends to run on the lean side on RB's apparently......plenum design or something similar I believe

fecked turbo would cause white smoke, correct?

thats only if the oil seal is broken, ive seen a few exhaust wheels come off, just causes the fuel ratios to go to shit. aka black smoke

have you tried another stock bov at all?

hopefiully you used decent metal gaskets for the mani to block and mani to turbs areas

Love all the speculation!!

It's at morpowa and I am sure they will find the problem for you!

I really hope it's not internally :D But with this sort of issue can be alot of things as mentioned above :cool:

Good Luck!!

yeah we used metal gaskets.

just got a call from simon, he is also stumped, last i heard, he was gonna check AFM.

i think dan is onto something with the exhaust wheel coming off.....that would explain the bad boosting sound

and bad afr...........

just got another call from simon

he found a split in an intercooler pipe, he just replaced it and bout to run the dyno.

*punches self in face, why didnt i check it properly, f**k head*

    • BRUH, one of the biggest mistakes of my life..... and i've had plenty ;[)
    • @Murray_Calavera iam just considering options 🙂 of course it is very expensive so that why i ask here 🙂  @joshuaho96 I looked at that GCG hybrid(i remember looking at it few weeks before) So this is "that" hybrid where i send them my turbo and they upgrade the inside to Garrett stuff and then they send it back. It cost around 1200-1300 USD which is FAR cheaper than the HKS and it is what iam looking for(i just do not have experience like this...to send something off to "upgrade" ) @tylink720 that is like 150 USD turbo no? 😄 I dont think i have the "ease on my mind" with this kind of turbo. I just put over 7000k USD to "LINK" up my engine...dont want to blow it up with cheap turbo 😄     EDIT: https://www.cj-motor.com/gcg-turbo-charger-for-nissan-rb20det-rb25det-high?srsltid=AfmBOooVeOZ6CZ6r1AIv5m-KPaa6BvudIPJTY8LW78khkd-gQlsaCht9 I looked at this and it seems ok? It is that CGC hybrid and it costs around 1250 USD (with back shipping). Do any of you have experience with this hybrid on NEO turbo? I quickly look thru the forum/web and it seems very good.
    • Echo the awesome sentiment 👍 Definitely a car worth saving. Looking forward to seeing updates as well.

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
